Verse 1 Doctor says it’s nothing major I nod like I agree All the charts look clean and stable Except the part that’s me I don’t cancel plans, I downgrade Smile stays in range If this is what “fine” looks like I’ve adapted to the pain Pre-Chorus No alarms No collapse Chorus They call it mild symptoms only But they follow me home Nothing sharp, nothing broken Just a pressure I know They call it mild symptoms only Like it doesn’t count If I’m functioning in public I must be fine now Verse 2 I don’t bleed, I just feel tired Of explaining tone Everyone wants a headline I live in the footnotes I learned how to speak in averages How to pass the test If this is the baseline normal I’m doing my best Bridge Not enough To stop the day Just enough To stay away If I rest It fades slow Then it’s back Like it knows Final Chorus They call it mild symptoms only So I let it slide If the scale won’t tip to danger I keep it inside They call it mild symptoms only I smile and comply If survival needs a label This one fits tonight Outro Vitals steady. Still feeling it.
